Christmas Comes to Cramahe

Christmas came to Cramahe Township this weekend. Three churches, two businesses and Castleton Town Hall were buzzing with people of all ages sharing some good times and often, spending their money.



There was lots to choose.

At Second Helpings, in its new store across from the gazebo, the staff and family members were modelling clothing which could be purchased in the shop at a fraction of the retail cost.

Castleton United Church was crowded on both levels. Upstairs exhibitors offered a range of gift items. Downstairs food was the main interest - from baking and jams to lunch.

Down the street the Castleton Town Hall was awash in Christmas glitter as Lana and her helpers guided shoppers to the many possibilities.

Hoselton's, hosting its annual pre-Christmas bash, was also helping the Northumberland United Way this year.

If you need it, they had it at the Prospect Missionary Church bake sale and bazaar,

And far off the east, shepherds watched the flocks of shoppers milling through the aisles of Salem Church. In the back with their gifts of pie, cake and muffins were the wise bakers.

If you forgot to go out on Saturday, there is still time to go to the Castleton Town Hall Artisans Show and to Hoselton's. They are open Sunday, too.
